Maureen felt restless with unease on her way home.

The moment she stepped inside, she couldn’t help but call Gareth.

The phone connected quickly, a deep, resonant voice coming through.

“Reenie, what’s wrong?”

Gareth knew Maureen only reached out when something troubled her.

“Geoffrey found me today. He asked about the children… he knows I was pregnant before.”

Maureen told him everything.

After a pause, Gareth’s comforting words came through: “Don’t worry. I had Jacob and Ethan’s birth dates altered.”

“That’s good, that’s good.”

Maureen realized she’d panicked momentarily.

“Don’t be afraid. With me here, no one will take Ethan or Jacob away.”

Thousands of miles away, Gareth stood atop a seaside building.

Behind him, a conference room full of executives waited for him to resume their meeting.

Hanging up, Gareth lingered with reluctance.

He then instructed his assistant: “Keep close watch over Ethan. Must never allow Geoffrey’s people to find him.”

Lately, he’d noticed investigators digging into Maureen’s past.

He hadn’t expected Geoffrey’s reach to extend this far.

He kept this from Maureen to spare her worry.
